A Model Cooperative Institution.

The Bagdad Lumber, Blind and Sash
company of Florida, as described by The
Times Union, is a model institution. None
of its stock is for sale, and no money can
buy admission to the company Its stock
holders are its workmen, its clerks its mana
gers. Each is qualified by entering some
one Of the branches Of tho business at the
bottom and working for regular wages
until, after mastering the details. he Is
promoted, and, when his services are found
valuable, he is allotted certain number Of
shares. These shares are inalienable. and
at the death of the holder they are sold to
the highest bidder among the other stock
holders for the benefit Of the widow and
children. There are no capitalists and no
strikes. The company now owns 1.0C0,-
600 acres of finely timbered land, employs
many men, and ships its lumber in its
own schooneys. New York Sun.
The production Of the Minneapolis saw
mills during the season Just closed was 262, :
CSC. Ole feet, or more than sc. GOO, 0O0 feet
less than that Of 1885. This decrease
seems to have been largely due to the fact
that the season was the shortest on record,
being from . month to six weeks less than
the preceding. The fact, also, that the
logs in the river have been almost COM
plstely cleaned up would seem to indicate
that the result was partly owing to de-
crease in the log cut as compared with pre-

for finite by the Messrs. Finel was one
of the best numbers. Mrs. HI. X. Ide
sang the Last Mile Stone" with ex-
cellent taste and song by Mrs. Nc
Neil was very pleasing. A. G. Morse

nice solo. Mr.. Mays solo, "The Kings
Champion" was fine, the demand for
more being very emphatic. A duet
for guitar and banjo by Miss r. E.

song, showed that she is likely t.
